When Fang Piao walked into the silver Emu Hall, almost every staff member took the initiative to say hello to him. He was a little flattered earlier and made a lot of jokes, but now he can deal with it calmly.
Everyone nodded in response.
The vaulted hall is located on the first floor of the Elfendor Spire. After passing a long crescent-shaped front desk, you can enter the elevators leading to the first to thirtieth floors. There are fourteen elevators in total, each with
One can accommodate twenty-two people going up and down at the same time. Fang Plover stepped on the semicircular platform and looked down. He saw a layer of hollow metal mesh under his feet. Along with the huge roar of the hinges, the elevator began to shake.
Akira climbs upwards.
The experience of using this thing is very poor. The difference between it and the elevators on the earth cannot be measured. The deafening sound of metal collision is like being in a steel workshop, so that on the communicator that Fang Piao opened, the portrait of Hongye had to be
She almost screamed and said to him:
"Where are you? I'm going deaf."
Fang Plover nodded empathetically and pointed to his ear, expressing the same sentiment.
"I'm on the lift."
Hongye then returned to the topic and said loudly: "Sister Hongxiu asked me to bring you materials for the second half of this year. The batch of goods you provided before has been well received in the guild. Everyone is asking where Sister Hongxiu found it.
A master craftsman came to supply the goods. But they also asked why this master craftsman kept making some 'toys'."
"By the way, Sister Hongxiu is Yugudola. Her community ID, which you should have met once, is Hongxiu Tianxiang, so we all call her that."
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Anyone who has worked so hard to make something would be unhappy to be described as a 'toy'. But judging from the average level of the main members of Tapolis, the things he made before were really just
It can be regarded as a 'toy'.
But it is a very high quality ‘toy’.
"In the second half of this year, I will be able to make higher-level magic devices, but our previous contract will have to be re-signed." Fang Yu is now familiar with this aspect of things, and said directly: "I will let Ai Ti
Take Miss to talk to you."
"Can that quality still be maintained?"
"It should be possible."
"It's too noisy over there, we'll see you later."
Fang Yu nodded silently.
He put away the communicator, and amidst the roar of the platform's "clang, clang, clang", he looked down at the patio under the metal mesh under his feet as it descended step by step. Not long after, the platform reached its destination on the 24th floor, the Moonlight Hall.
.
Miss Elf and Little Miss Naturalist are waiting for him there.
Etila was dressed up in a rare dress, with her hair tied up, revealing the elf's pointed ears and slender neck. She wore a long silver gauze-like sacrificial robe underneath, with thin wing-like gauze covering the silver robe, making it look...
Quite dignified and beautiful.
The robe is painted with giant emerald trees and the sun, moon and stars, which is the creation myth of the Forest Temple. The giant tree is the beloved object of the goddess Amaya in this world. The robe hangs to the bottom and is surrounded by clouds.
Three worlds.
The first level is Aitaria.
The elf lady came over with a sacrificial staff in hand. Fang Plover looked at her with some joy and couldn't help but sincerely praise her: "Miss Aitila, you are so beautiful today."
"Because today's banquet is specially held for brother Ed," Jita explained in a low voice, her face a little red, like a cute apple: "Sister Edila has been preparing for a long time, and she usually doesn't
I won’t attend such occasions.”
Fang Yu nodded, Miss Elf did not attend the last dinner party.
"Jita is beautiful too."
Two red clouds flew up to Jita's cheeks, "Thank you, thank you." She stammered quickly, lowered her head, pulled her linen robe with one hand, and pretended to adjust her huge glasses.
Attila looked at him carefully, looked up and down, and made sure that there was no flaw on him before asking: "I heard that Mr. Dickert left you a letter?"
Only then did Fang Yu remember this and nodded: "Mr. Dickert said in the letter that he had gone to Idos first and was waiting for us to meet up there."
"Ed, when do you plan to leave Vanrick?"
"Just recently, I plan to announce this matter at the banquet."
After he recovered, the Elfendor Council sincerely invited him to stay and learn and communicate with the local alchemists, in order to express their gratitude on behalf of Vanric.
However, it was not so much learning and communication, but more about meeting with the masters of the Council. After all, after the incident of Nicol Bolas, those who had participated in that battle naturally knew the potential of this young man.
For this rising future star in the world of Kaolin-Ithurian alchemy, people also have the idea of helping him from behind. Many people, including Falaise, were originally going to leave after the game.
All the great craftsmen stayed here, wanting to see what Fang Plover could achieve?
So during the period when the sticklebacks invaded the Changhu area, the gathering of alchemists became a good talk in Kaolin-Ithurion. Many master craftsmen even came from other places to participate in this gathering.
grand event.
After all, the top figures of each school may not have the opportunity to meet several times in a few years.
Fang Yu has seen more and more masters.
His knowledge and knowledge of alchemy increased almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If the source of cognitive experience and knowledge were not really out of proportion, he might be able to reach another level here, but even this speed is enough to be incredible. Among alchemists, the discussion about him has become more and more intense.
coming more and more
But there is a limit to working behind closed doors, and Fang Yu gradually felt his own bottleneck, gaining less and less cognitive experience, and was about to run out before his eyes.
And Dickert's letter also gave him the idea to leave.
However, if you give him a peach and give him a plum in return, Fang Pultru also has a plan in mind.
"Speaking of which, the president of Ragnarok sent me a letter of thanks." He said this matter a little complacently.
"Isn't that Mr. Odin?" Jita asked softly.
"The president of Ranagrok seems more formal. He is the king of warriors. He wrote a letter saying thank you for everything I have done for Ragnarok." Fang Plover was a little proud, so he almost didn't show off the letter.
Even though it was an electronic letterhead, he couldn't take it out.
However, he knew the reason why Odin thanked him. Vanrik's game was only secondary. The more important thing was that he told Odin about the officials of the Super Sports League stationed in Rangarok in advance, so that the other party could react and not suffer too much because of what happened afterwards.
implicated.
Of course losses are unavoidable, but at least greater harm is avoided. In addition to his teachings to Dill and Cui Yu, after the game, he also specially trained several people for a period of time, including Yis's group.
, and taught these people the basic knowledge of Numelin elven alchemy.
It's a pity that the advanced content is too advanced. He tried to let everyone try it, but in the end it was useless. The alchemy formation he could easily draw was actually similar to the heavenly book in everyone's eyes, so they could only regret it with him.
Say goodbye.
However, after this incident, Cui Yu, Dill, and Yis's group all respectfully addressed him as teacher, which made him uncomfortable for a while. Even Soul Fingerprint wrote to him in private to thank him.
.
But as for whether he would spread the technology of the Numelin elves, he didn't think too much.
After all, he had never thought about hiding anything. After asking Anlose, the master of Nervad only let him decide for himself:
"The inheritance of the Silver Tower needs a suitable heir, but as for how you use this knowledge, it depends on you."
These are his exact words.
But it can be seen that the other party appreciates his decision. The spark of inspiration is born in the exchange. The self-preserving structure of the broom will never be able to create the alchemy of Aitaria today. As an alchemist, An Luo
Se is naturally aware of this.
Jita couldn't help but hold her forehead. She always felt that her brother Ed was a little too embarrassed.
"Didn't Mr. Odin say anything else?"
"No."
This is what Fang Plover is most satisfied with. It's not like Odin has never asked him if he wants to join rangarok, but after getting a negative answer from him, he never asked him a second time. This doesn't mean anything.
The sloppy style is obviously in sharp contrast to a certain woman.
That's right, he was talking about a certain woman from Elite, Virus. Ever since the Van Rieke Competition, he has sent an email every three days asking if he wants to cooperate with Elite. No matter how many times he refuses, the next letter will be
The tone is still exactly the same.
It almost made him suspect that the other party simply copied and pasted it.
This is too much.
He was a little itchy, so he only said to the two of them: "Miss Attila, Jita, let's go in first and then talk."
Attila nodded.
But before the three of them walked into the hall, a half-elf walked up from the side, stretched out his hand to stop them, smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Ed, could you please take a step to speak."
Fang Yu was startled, wondering why these words sounded so familiar, which made him look at the latter with caution:
I saw that the man was wearing a long green shirt with silver embroidery, a brown vest, the eagle-beak trousers commonly used by rangers, 'Natural String Magic' guide boots, a chameleon cloak, and carrying a
The style of the huge recurve bow magic furnace is also the rem type, the ranger military type magic furnace from Kingfisher Workshop.
His first impression was, wow, this guy is really rich.
But before he could speak, a figure crossed over from the side, blocked him, separated him from him, and said coldly: "Luce, what are you doing here?"
Fang Yu took a closer look and realized that it was not Hongye.
The half-elf ranger was polite and replied: "As you can see, meet Mr. Ed."
"Ed doesn't need you to know him."
Hongye fended off the opponent a little angrily, turned around and said to the other party: "Ed, Miss Attila, Jita, let's go."
The three of them were slightly startled, glanced at the man, and then followed Hong Ye into the hall.
The half-elf ranger smiled and did not stop him. Fang Plover glanced back, but did not see the other party following him. Then he turned around and asked a little confused: "Miss Hongye, who is that?"
"Nasty guy," Hongye replied. But she remembered Yugudola's instructions again, sighed, and said to him in a softer tone: "Ed, Miss Edtila, there are actually some things I am preparing for."
Let me tell you that Guild President, Sister Hongxiu had a falling out with other senior officials, and Tapolis is still a guild in name, but in reality it has been split into two."
Jita let out a soft sigh when she heard this, and looked at the other party in surprise.
Fang Yu was also a little surprised. Although he had heard some things about the internal struggle in Tapolis from Jita and Luo Yu, he did not expect that it would evolve to such a step. He quickly asked: "This is
What's going on?"
"Not because of the regulations of the Super Sports League, Tapolis is divided into two factions. One faction supports finding capital injections to establish a formal commercial club. The other faction is the president and elders like Sister Hongxiu. They hope that the Oak Knights can
Stick to the original intention.”
"Those people made a big fuss. There were many people in the guild who supported them, and the president couldn't unify everyone's opinions. In addition, the Super Competitive Alliance occupied the commanding heights of public opinion, so we were very passive for a time."
"With no other choice, Sister Hongxiu can only secretly let those of us who are still on the side of the president break into pieces and continue to maintain the name of Tapolis in the form of large and small adventure groups. In this way,
Tapolis no longer exists, but at least we still exist."
Hongye then said: "So actually I will no longer be a member of Tapolis soon, you won't blame us, right?"
In his heart, Fang Yu agreed very much with the decision of Yugudola and the other party's president. He will always have full respect for those who adhere to the concept of freedom of the Forerunners. He immediately replied: "The contract I signed with the Oak Knights, and
What does Tapolis have to do with it?”
Hongye glanced at him in surprise.
"Sister Hongxiu did leave such a loophole in the contract she signed with you. I didn't expect you to actually see it?"
"What do you mean, I actually noticed it!?" Fang Plover sweated wildly. When did he notice it? He just missed it. It's just that Jita and Luo Yu told him the difference between Tapolis and the Oak Knights.
.
Hongye breathed a sigh of relief when he got his affirmative answer.
She replied: "Luce is from their side. They were not optimistic about your adventure group, Luo Yu, and Jita's affairs at first. They have been criticizing Sister Hongxiu's insistence on signing the contract with you. But after this incident,
, people see your potential, and they are not fools, so they rush to please you."
"They are really hateful." Jita frowned in disgust and whispered.
Fang Plover immediately excluded the other party from the list of meetings, thinking that the first time he opened his mouth, he would be the one to talk to. As expected, there was no good person.
"What is this batch of materials?"
"We have now divided into twenty-two regiments. I am the leader of the eleventh regiment. Because many people have gone to Luce's side, these regiments only retain most of their backbones. We have to absorb many new people.
, when everything was first started, I was eager to find a stable logistics channel, so Sister Hongxiu recommended you to me. To be honest, when I found out it was you, I was shocked. How could I get you to join the group in the first place?
No, I didn’t expect that we would cooperate in this way in the end, it’s really unpredictable.”
Fang Yu heard this and wanted to help the other party. This was not only the relationship between him and Hong Ye, Liu Liyue and Wu Di, but also the recognition of Yu Gudora, the other party's president's philosophy: "
So what equipment do you need? You can make a detailed list for me and I will do my best."
Hongye was startled: "Wait a minute, you don't want to make me a batch of legendary equipment, do you? I heard that you can make legendary equipment with just a few moves. That's too exaggerated."
"Is that that exaggerated?" Fang Yu thought to himself what the hell was being spread in the community. But he couldn't help but think to himself, if everyone in the other party's group had a set of A+ level high-quality equipment, that would be the case.
Interesting.
But in that case, the production cycle may be a bit long.
"About these materials, I actually have something to tell you." Hongye said again at this time.
"how?"
Hongye opened the communication crystal, and the light projected on it intertwined with an avatar.
Fang Plover recognized that it was Yugudola.
The swordsman lady was obviously a lot more haggard, but she couldn't help but smile when she saw him: "Ed, it turns out that I have a really good taste."
Fang Yu was embarrassed by the oblique compliment, and felt very embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.
Yugudola then said with a smile: "I heard that you want to build an aeroplane, right? In this batch of materials, there are a batch of mithril and elf vines, as well as rock shark leather, which you may be able to use.
I prepared this specially for you."
Fang Yu was surprised: "How can this be done? There is no such content in the contract."
"This has nothing to do with the contract," Yugudola shook her head gently: "Ed, what happened to Tapolis made us understand something."
She suddenly became serious: "Have you ever thought about a question?"
This sudden seriousness made Fang Yu startled.
The other party said: "Do you still remember the Covenant Mountain incident? It was the beginning of the break between the bottom selectors of the domestic division and the guild alliance, and it was also a big deal at the time. And not long ago, the second Covenant Mountain incident happened, and even
Even the Sea Witch has joined in. The two Covenant Mountain incidents have had a profound impact on our division."
Fang Plover nodded.
He also thought of Miya
The two Covenant Hill incidents were the voice of the silent majority.
Because of the resistance to bullying and arrogance, the free electors who were originally individuals chose to stand together at that moment. It was a movement that did not need anyone to organize it, just because of the desire for justice in people's hearts.
Cognition and the yearning for those universal beautiful values are always common.
Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Yes, that's exactly what he longs for.
But Yugudora sighed:
"The enthusiasm of candidates cannot last forever. After all, each of us has our own life. After the wave of opposition passes, everything will soon fall silent again. People are always forgetful, so that history will repeat itself again and again.
Perhaps in the near future, there will be a third Covenant Mountain incident and a fourth Covenant Mountain incident. But does this make sense? Ed, have you ever thought that the 'descendants of Flor' are still going their own way, even
It gets worse again and again. What allows them to bully the weak without restraint, be arrogant and indifferent, and ignore everything that people cherish?"
"That's because compared to the strength of individuals, the guild alliance is still too strong. Even if it is the Rose Crusade, the elite may remain neutral, but they will not stand on the side of the free adventurers. Only Silver Vislan may
We will think more about what justice is. There are too few examples like the Covenant Mountain incident.”
Fang Yu thought for a moment and replied.
"Indeed," Hongye also replied: "Behind the Grand Guild, after all, there are capital alliances that span several competition regions and national borders. Even the Super Competitive Alliance also serves them. The voices of the free selectors are really loud most of the time.
It’s too weak.”
When Jita heard this, she couldn't help but ask: "Then why don't the free-chosen people unite together?"
"Isn't it Tapolis?" Hongye asked back.
Jita opened her mouth, her eyes shining brightly behind her glasses.
Fang Plover also sighed in his heart.
If it had been earlier, he might have asked the same question as Jita.
But now he can’t. Ambassador Liao has made it very clear that the rules of the game are difficult to change. The essence of super competition is a zero-sum game. Under this framework, even if China is opposed, there will be
What's the point?
Even if you leave the meeting angrily, you will only isolate yourself in the forest of the world. Or will you reverse history and return to the law of the jungle? But the war before the era of the Chosen has long told people this.
The road is still impassable.
It is not the optimal solution, but it is a state that everyone can accept at the moment.
Under the framework of the Super Competitive League, if the Chinese division wants to compete with other divisions, it will naturally rely on those clubs and guild alliances.
It is foreseeable that after replacing a group of officials, the Super Competitive League will still come back. And this time will not be too long. After all, it is not only the league that has been suspended, but also more than 130 top domestic guilds and clubs, large and small.
.
And now it is the Super Competitive Alliance that cannot tolerate the existence of Free Guilds. Integrating domestic Super Competitive resources sounds nice, but even Free Guilds will be hit by it, let alone an extensive Free Chosen Alliance?
Will the military help them?
The military may do it, but the help it can give them is extremely limited. Just like the other party's intervention in the Covenant Mountain incident, it only saved a few players at the center of the vortex.
He suddenly understood how Yugudora and the others were feeling at this moment. How sad would it be if what they had always insisted on disappeared into thin air due to a strong external force?
But Yugudora didn't seem too discouraged: "Actually, what Jita said is not unreasonable."
Fang Plover looked at the other party a little surprised.
She then said: "Ed, have you ever thought that the freely chosen people can actually form a force? This force does not even need to make a sound like the first and second Covenant Mountains, but it
Just being silent is enough to make the guild alliance restrain its hands and be cautious."
"Are you saying that a broad alliance has been formed among the free electors? But the Super Competitive Alliance will not sit idly by and ignore it. Although they have encountered some troubles now, they will eventually come back."
Yugudora smiled:
"That's exactly what I'm doing."
"Tapolis is scattered here and there, but we are still Tapolis. A broad freedom front does not necessarily have to be in the form of a guild or an alliance. The Super Competitive Alliance cannot restrain us, and we only need to ensure that we can fight at the critical moment.
If it makes a consistent sound, it also has potential power."
Fang Yu was shocked, and a bold idea took shape in his mind. "Wait, how can we do this?"
"It's very simple. Tapolis is not an isolated example, and neither are you, Ed. Are you, me, Hongye and the president the only ones who still miss the glory of the forerunners? No, I think many people have
The ideal still exists.”
She said word by word: "It's just that I need an opportunity to light them up."
Fang Yu was shocked: "Light up...?"
Yugudola nodded: "Just like the Sea Witch, just like the opportunity in the first Covenant Mountain incident, what people need is a symbol that can unite them, but such a symbol, the Tower
Polis cannot do it because our strength is still too small. Even a behemoth like the Eastern Communist Party cannot do it because it is too big and inappropriate. It has long forgotten the ideals of its ancestors and has no free choice. The first guild
It’s just a name.”
"So do you know who that is?" Yugudola asked: "Actually, there are many, many such people in the big guilds, but among the free electors, there are very few. It may be possible in the future
The only ones who have achieved this are you and Loofah."
"Me and loofah?"
"Yes, but although Loofah likes to go against the alliance, her temper is too weird. People recognize her strength, but do not agree with many of her practices. And you, Ed, you may not know that you are freely selecting
The only reason is that people don’t know yet that you are actually one of them.”
"Many people regard you as Ragnarok or the future star of Silver Vislan, but even so, after the Battle of Vanric, you still have quite a lot of love and supporters among the Free Chosen. Because in the past ten years
, in the backwaters of the domestic competition area, only you and loofah, the two people who say they are the hope for the future, were born."
"Compared to you, Loofah was much more unknown at this age. She only gradually became known to people after she left the Rosary Crusade. So, you know that if you announce your identity as a Free Chosen One,
Will it cause much of a sensation?"
"You will be an example and example to those who are freely chosen."
Fang Yu opened his mouth, thinking that it was that exaggerated?
Eugedora nodded slightly: "And your problem now is to leave Kaolin-Ithulian first."
"Leave Corrin-Ithurion?"
"It's not about leaving in the literal sense. It's because to leave Kaolin-Ithurian, you first need to have your own team, and to have a real adventure group, you first need to have your own aerospace ship.
, this is the first step.”
"When people gather around you and become a team, your current reputation can truly become your own voice. Ed, ever since you rejected Hongye and Wu Di's invitation, I know that you, I and the president have all
It’s different. You and the previous president of Tapolis are the same type of people as the forerunners.”
"You are the free chosen one, so Ed, are you willing to speak up for yourself and for the people who are walking with you?"
"So don't refuse in a hurry. What you lack is not potential and talent, but time, because time is too precious for us. It is also time for the free electors to make their voices heard, and each of us must
Take responsibility for your own future.”
She answered word for word: "These materials are not just given to you, Ed, but belong to that ideal."
Fang Plover was a little quiet.
In fact, that was exactly what he was thinking.
Owning an aeroplane is the first step for him to break away from all constraints and go to the second world. As long as he has an aeroplane, he will no longer be subject to the descendants of Flor, nor will he be subject to dragon worship.
The influence of teaching. As long as he takes this step, one day he will gradually become more mature.
Then, will he recreate the era of freedom and exploration that he longs for?
He had never thought about this in the past, because the world was changing all the time. It was not easy to go back to the past. He just wanted to have a small dream of his own and be alone. But at this moment, Yugudora's words
It was like opening Pandora's box and igniting a fire in his heart.
That little ambition is burning.
Maybe he was powerless.
But just participating in something like this is enough to make people fascinated.
Fang Yu turned around and saw Miss Etila looking at him, her eyes showing respect for her opinion. The elf girl was like looking at her younger brother. In the past, she held on too tightly, but now she suddenly understood that young people always
There will be a day when I leave my hometown.
She nodded slightly.
Fang Yu took a deep breath before calming down:
"If given the chance, I will stand with people, Miss Eugudola."
"It's just that it's too far away for me to think about this now."
Yugudola was very calm when she heard this, and did not mean to be rejected: "What about these mithrils?"
Fang Yu nodded: "I'll accept the mithril."
Because Yugudola was right, what he lacked was time.
Compared with those more important things, pretentiousness is always the most unnecessary, and as the captain, he must first learn to take the responsibility of making decisions.
